Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns Beretta 30X

My city boy roots make me a sucker for small pocket pistols. I carried, and shot the hell out of, a Beretta 21A .22 LR carried in my pocket sans holster a long time ago. I also am a Fabbrica d'Armi Pietro Beretta fan. Perhaps it is the bias of my heritage. This one may bump the S&W 632 down on my list. We'll see.



If I wait 2 years, they may offer a 500th anniversary model.

Nice upgrades, but I won't be rushing out to replace my Tomcat.

At the end of the day, the Bob/Tomcat is a novelty item and range toy. I don't see either as a carry gun or backup gun. But they are fun to shoot.

I agree about the lack of practicality. I still would have to load up some ammo with Rim Rock hard cast bullets to see what they would penetrate.

I know it's not practical, but I like it. Here's a new review. The shooting was conducted at the range where I shot many thousands of rounds from my Beretta 21A back in the day.



I agree with the idea of thinner grips and a flush fit magazine. (I liked the Langdon Tactical version of the Tomcat, too.)
